Digital Video I/Os

CLIPSTER supports several SDI modes, which can be selected through the 
user interface in the software. Different SDI modes may require different 
connections to the digital video I/Os located on the main connector panel. 

The I/O ports are divided into four quadrants, each of them having a row for 
the A and B links as well as two In and Out ports.

SDI general layout 

R&S  names the input/output ports of the digital video signals alphabetically: 
the main video link is available on the A ports and the secondary video link 
on the B ports. The numbers specify the quadrant those ports belong to. For 
example, a connection of 4K 1.5-Gbit/s SDI output will have the following 
layout:

Pin-outs of most connectors can be found in section “Signal In- and Outputs” 
on page 67.

For the availability of connectors not present at the rear of the system (blind 
panels) please contact Rohde & Schwarz.
